--------
Include the "config/difftool.txt" file in "git-difftool.txt", and move the relevant part of git-difftool(1) configuration from "config/diff.txt" to config/difftool.txt". Doing this is slightly odd, as we usually discuss configuration in alphabetical order, but by doing it we're able to include the full set of configuration used by git-difftool(1) (and only that configuration) in its own documentation.
